NTT DoCoMo, Japan, could launch a ‘Super 3G’ mobile service by 2009, delevering download speeds of up to 250Mbps and uploads of 50Mbps, reports TechRadar following a public demonstration of the technology in Tokyo this week. The improved data transmission rates were achieved using 4×4 multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) technology on an LTE (long-term evolution) network. NTT DoCoMo, which inaugurated the world’s first 3G network FOMA in October 2001, says only a software upgrade, and not a hardware based change, will be needed to roll out its ultra-high speed service.

Japan’s NTT DoCoMo has begun testing its ‘Super 3G’ system this month. The company is seeking to achieve a downlink transmission rate of 300 Mbps using Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology. DoCoMo will begin with an indoor experiment to test transmission speed using one transmitting and one receiving antenna. The company will then expand the experiment to examine downlink transmission by employing up to four MIMO antennas for both the base station (transmission side) and mobile station (receiving side). The goal is to achieve a downlink transmission speed of 300 Mbps.
